Interesting, the blue one kinda looks like a slushee? Not what I was expecting.
I wasn't expecting that either as the idea fails on paper.
Are any of these going to be alcoholic?

I’d rather it be a milkshake with a unique flavor.
Supposedly the merch is going to be hand crafted by the "locals". Whether it will actually be hand crafted, i'm not sure, but it sure will have the look of something you see at flea markets in tourist areas of places like Nassau, Mexico, Hawaii, etc based on what Bio posted last night:
And I think this is new concept art(?). I hadn't seen it before certainly:
The only way it was ever going to work was as a frozen drink. Personally, I think they should get the recipe from Kings Island's blue ice cream, make it a milkshake and call it a day.

I assume that, similar to Pongu Pongu in Pandora, there will be alcoholic drinks to purchase. And I assume that the Cantina would be an obvious spot for alcoholic drinks too.Blue milk except it’s made entirely of UV blue vodka! Just kidding! I would love to see some alcoholic themed drinks.

I think that's a pretty bold move, and potentially a risk. I get the intention, and I admire the desire to stay in theme, but I would have thought most people going into a Star Wars land would be looking to buy pretty traditional merchandise. A move like this would lead me to believe that they think the Launch Bay and Tatooine Traders are going to be sticking around for a while, because those would be the only other places with large assortments of "normal" SW merch.
Two thoughts on this (so far)
- I bet there will likely be more traditional merch in the more "industrial" sections of the land.
- How else can you make merch of the same things that doesn't look like something you can find in Target?
That is if they build an exit gift shop. It's a common misconception that Disney has you "Exit Through the Gift Shop". Sure a lot of their rides do - the ones that were built in the 90's and early 2000's. That was the trend back then. If you look at new things Disney has built recently the only new build to have an exit gift shop is Flight of Passage, and even that shop has a gate where you can skip the shop. I do it almost every time.I bet you the "authentic local" stuff will be limited to the bazaar. I'm sure that at least one of the two attractions will have an elaborate exit shop featuring more traditional merchandise.
Why is Disney Imagineering pretending they actually make the stuff you see in the park. Tooting your own horn is kind of embarrassing.

I bet it'll cost a pretty penny.That AT-AT is pretty bad ass.
